Help me give my students a variety of resources for them to show what they have learned.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Belmares's classroom raised $700

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I'm looking to give my students different resources to learn and show what they have learned creatively. Having different games and crafts, will give them resources to demonstrate what they have learned and will empower them to keep growing. I want them to see the potential I see in them and for them to keep growing their minds and creativity. Also, having unconventional comfortable seating will let them relax and let their imagination explore new ideas.

Through their resilience, my students show me they are capable of conquering the world.

I would like them to see how capable they are to keep accomplishing their dreams and goals. My students are hard workers and love their family and friends.
